Pros

- Great base salary & stipends (wellness, wifi, etc) - Retirement match - HSA employer contribution - Generous parental leave (compared to other US companies) - If you're hub based, there's free food - Grammarly is a well loved product with a strong brand (cannot speak for Coda and Superhuman, but it seems the same for Superhuman) - Some genuinely kind people who are great to work with

Cons

- Instability from multiple acquistions in one year, plus the rolling layoffs (they have every month but there aren't any announcements) and resourcing impacts from those layoffs - Many are willing to throw you under the bus, especially in the current environment where a lot is unknown and everyone wants to save their own job - Growth opportunties vary a lot, it depends on having a solid manager who can advocate for you and help you get high visibility projects - Leadership seems to be scrambling to plan catch up in a very competitive landscape - Work/life balance isn't great; working evening and weekends weekly is normal, plus early or late meetings across timezones - Long interview process based on company values that the company no longer aligns with - Still very start-up-y with a lack of governance over tools (e.g. knowledge sharing is a mess)

Pros

- Office life: I wasn't sold on returning to the office, but they've made it a really lovely experience. I'm not required to come in, just encouraged. I'm enjoying it much more than I anticipated. My meals are taken care of. My transportation needs are covered and flexible - sometimes I take MUNI, sometimes I drive. -On-site culture: Very deliberate about bringing teams together. There are always team on-sites at the office. I appreciate the intentionality in including remote employees. -Products: There's a lot of excitement about the products we're building and how we're pitching ourselves to the market. - AI: We have access to so many AI tools. I think this is a major selling point because my AI fluency is rapidly developing, and Superhuman isn't putting limits on it.

Cons

There's been a lot of change in the last two years. Grammarly acquired Coda, Superhuman Mail, and Rows. Then rebranded to Superhuman. Plus the leadership changes that come with that. You can only imagine the identity crisis that comes with all those changes. It feels like we're starting to come out on the other side, but it's also very clear we're in a moment of change. It can be hard to keep up with all the new products, product changes, and other updates.
